[QUOTE="Michael K, post: 3001854, member: 78298"]I wouldn't use salt. Vinegar will make the copper a little pink. You can take any toothpaste, and put a little on front and back and rub it between your fingers and a lot of the dirt will come off. Vinegar is not terrible on nickel (if you don't mind ruining the coin) but on copper I don't like the color. You can always experiment on a couple of old dirty pennies.[/QUOTE]
